AWith two documentaries-All That Breathes and The Elephant Whisperers-making it to the Oscars, there＇s renewed interest in India＇s diverse wildlife. However, most popular wildlife parks are usually expensive. Here are four less-known reserves that are not so costly but equally worth exploring.Coringa Wildlife ReserveCoringa is the second largest mangrove forest in the country. It is a birder＇s paradise and also home to otters, jackals, fishing cats and estuarine crocodiles. Endangered Olive Ridley sea turtles nest here during January-March every year.COST OF RIDE: 400-2, 500 per person by boatBEST TIME TO VISIT: November to FebruaryNational Chambal ReserveThe 5, 400 sq km reserve is the only one in India with three keystone species-Ganges river dolphin, ghariyal and red-crowned roof turtle-along with eight rare turtle species and about 300 species of migratory and resident birds.COST OF RIDE: 1, 800 per person by boatBEST TIME TO VISIT: November to MarchGulf of Mannar Marine National ParkThe park has 21 small islands and three distinct coastal ecosystems-coral reef, seagrass bed and mangroves-with over 4, 200 species of plants and animals. It is the last reserve of the unique “living fossil” Balanoglossus that links vertebrates （脊椎动物）and invertebrates.COST OF RIDE: 200-400 per person in a glass-bottomed boatBEST TIME TO VISIT: October to MarchManas National ParkThis reserve is a UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site. It is home to the threatened Indian Rhinoceros and other rare species like the Red Panda, Golden Langur and Pygmy Hog, and is also a Project Tiger Reserve and an elephant reserve with around 55 species of mammals, 450 species of birds and 50 species of reptiles.COST OF RIDE: 1, 150 per head on elephant, 4, 400 for a jeep with four people, 8, 200 per person to 10, 600 for six people in a boatBEST TIME TO VISIT: October to May1. What is probably the major concern of visitors choosing these less-known reservesA. Season.B. Security.C. Price.D. Transportation.2. Which attracts tourists who hope to see different turtle species mostA. Coringa Wildlife Reserve.B. National Chambal Reserve.C. Gulf of Mannar Marine National Park.D. Manas National Park.3. How much does it cost for 4 people to explore Manas National Park on elephantA. 4, 400.B. 4, 600.C. 8, 200.D. 10, 600.BWhen 76-year-old Antoinette-Marie Williams played 17-year-old Emmett Daniels in chess for the first time, she gave Daniels a run for his money. Paired through DOROT, a New York organization which was launched in 1976, they are a. perfect match. “I was a good opponent for him. I don't think he expected it. ” Williams told the CVS Health blog Fortune Well. Their weekly games have led Daniels and Williams to a cross-generational relationship that they both enjoy. Williams and Daniels＇relationship disproves the idea that people of different generations have little in common.Since its founding, DOROT has achieved a reputation of excellence and innovation in the fields of aging services. Volunteers of young ages offer critical resources to older adults, in services specific to the person's needs and interests, with the ultimate goal of lessening loneliness of the old.Loneliness has been recognized as a significant social issue for many years, but the classification of loneliness as an epidemic （流行病）has emerged only in recent years. In 2018, the UK government appointed a Minister for Loneliness, highlighting the increasing concern around the issue. This followed the publication of the 2017 report by the Jo Cox Loneliness Commission, which found that loneliness was a growing social epidemic and called for a national strategy to address the issue. Fortunately, there are ways to battle loneliness, including the intervention in the lives of isolated seniors by organizations like DOROT. It advocates building a support network by reaching out to family and friends, joining a community or social group, or volunteering to connect with like-minded people. The connection between Williams and Daniels shows that these inter-generational relationships play an important role in reducing loneliness and adding joy to the lives of all the participants, young and old.Another way to battle loneliness is to use technology to stay connected with loved ones which fosters meaning and purpose through online activities and conversations. Practicing self-care is also encouraged, as is being patient because strong relationships take time and effort to create.4. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 1 probably meanA. She had a running race with Daniels.B. Daniels felt disappointed.C. Daniels had a tough win.D. She gave Daniels money as a gift of greeting.5. What is the purpose of DOROTA. To make technological innovation.B. To enhance the living standards of the elderly.C. To offer job opportunities for people of all ages.D. To provide seniors with inter-generational connection.6. What does the author try to stress in paragraph 3A. The solution to loneliness.B. The root cause of loneliness.C. The classification of loneliness.D. The growing attention to loneliness.7. In which section of a newspaper does this passage probably come fromA. Society Watch.B. News Express.C. Page Turner.D. Science Study.CSeveral years ago, I was at a pre-season football practice at a high school where I was working with the team on. a concussion（脑震荡）research project. The players were lined up in two rows facing each other and with little more instruction from the coach than, “on the whistle, hit the man across from you”, great concern rushed through my mind.Professional sports get the lion's share of attention, but over three million children and teenagers in the United States play the same game. This directly places concussions as a significant public health concern for all.However, for decades, concussion has been considered a temporary injury with no long-term consequences. Many athletes will do just about anything to stay on the field and “play through the pain” as a sign of toughness. In 2005, with the release of the brain tissue pathology （病理学）report of Mike Webstera, a retired National Football League player, our thinking on concussion began to shift. Since then, public attention has focused on this link between brain injury and blows to the head. As our understanding of concussion progressed to understanding its significance as an injury, so too did the development of player equipment.In the early 1900s football was played without helmets （头盔）, but severe injuries, like skull fractures, led to the occasional use of leather helmets in the 1920s. The first face mask entered the game in the 1950s. Modern helmets use advanced shel1 materials, have moveable panels to absorb forces, and multi-layered padding that responds to different panies will continue to improve helmets as new materials become available, guided by the newest science.Sports are an important part of a society's culture and they give millions of children much-needed exercise. Yet, participation in any sport carries injury risk, and concussion will always be part of that. As those children become adults and make sport their hobby or 'even career, ensuring them play safely at all levels is essential.8. What made the author feel concernedA. The coach's inexperience.B. The physical conflicts among the players.C. Unawareness of the potential injuries.D. Unpredictable outcome of the project.9. What did athletes use to do when meeting with sports-related concussionA. They tended to ignore it.B. They felt scared about it.C. They quit playing immediately.D. They refused medical assistance.10. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about concerning the helmetA. Its gradual improvement.B. Its widespread influence.C. The discovery of its new materials.D. The difficulty of its mass production.11. What can be inferred from the last paragraphA. Exercise is vital for children.B. Sports safety can't be overemphasized.C. No participation in sports is without injuries.D. Concussion is the most common injury in sports.DPeople generally feel secure with certainty. To be certain is to have power and control. Certainty is often used as a metric（衡量标准）of value, shaping how people view themselves and others. For example, people tend to respect those who present themselves as certain while viewing those who express uncertainty as wishy-washy, and untrustworthy. Young people growing up in a culture that identifies strongly with certainty are told that to be certain is to be secure, right, and good. It is the idea, more than uncertainty itself, that causes great anxiety.But the reality is that certainty is transient; it is more a feeling than a fact. Too often people act as if certainties are drawn in permanent marker: Thick, clear, definitive, and rigid. But they are not. They are actually drawn with pencil-ready for revision, editing, and change.Springtide's recent report, The State of Religion and Young People: Navigating Uncertainty, allows us to hear how young people are questioning certainty and increasingly rejecting the rules that isolate them from themselves and one another. Milly, a 25-year-old quoted in the report, described her experience in a group discussion where uncertainty was welcomed rather than criticized:“Like, struggling to know what or what not to believe. . . . That's something we talked about in the group. It actually makes me feel a little bit better. It's like, oh, like we can have doubts. We can struggle with these feelings and they're still, we're still accepted, you know So that was actually kind of refreshing" （Springtide, 2021, p. 46）. Young people are not rejecting certainty, but they are not accepting prepackaged answers or one-dimensional solutions. They are reexamining pre-drawn labels, beliefs, and identities and daring to ask “Why ” Their courage to question is an invitation to all of us to reconsider and rediscover uncertainty. We can listen to and learn from young people, embracing（拥抱）this opportunity as a moment of critical self-reflection and growth. If we will accept uncertainties, we might discover the ways that multiple beliefs, practices, values, identities, and communities can coexist and develop together.12. What is the purpose of paragraph 1A. To explain a concept.B. To advocate a culture.C. To introduce a different opinion.D. To confirm an assumption.13. What does the underlined word "transient” probably mean in paragraph 2A. Changeable.B. Predictable.C. Popular.D. Objective.14. What was Milly's attitude towards the group discussionA. Intolerant.B. Doubtful.C. Unconcerned.D. Positive.15. Which of the following can be the best title of the passageA. Unmask the Culture of CertaintyB. Embrace the Gift of UncertaintyC. Certainty: Should It Be Rejected by the YoungD. Uncertainty: Should It Be Blamed for Anxiety第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分）阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

AMany small American towns are known for their beautiful scenery,but very few have something special to offer. The following are known for their unique styles.Scottshoro,AlabamaThis attractive town is known as“The Lost Luggage Capital of the World”thanks to the unclaimed luggage center,where lost items such as snow skis,instruments and engagement rings are for sale. In addition to the store,which has become one of Alabama's top tourist and shopping attractions,the city's parks and heritage centers are popular places to visit.Hope,KansasHope is a city in southern Dickinson County,Kansas,with a population of 317.It's the home of Klipsch Museum of Audio History,President William Jefferson Clinton's birthplace and several antique shops. Hope's motto,which is also the name of the town's song,is“There will always be‘Hope’in Kansas”.Branson,MissouriAlthough its population is just over 10,000,Branson hosts over 9 million visitors each year. When the best-selling novel,The Shepherd of the Hills,written by Harold Bell Wright,was released in 1907,readers rushed to the Ozark hills to experience its famous views. Now tourists also get to visit the World's Largest Toy Museum,the world's largest Titanic Museum Attraction and the record-breaking theme park,Silver Dollar City. Leavenworth,WashingtonLeavenworth is a European-inspired destination, offering a collection of outdoor activities all year long. It welcomes almost 2million tourists each year and is home to the Nutcracker（胡桃夹子）Museum，which has more than 7，000 nutcrackers from around the world. Many of its visitors travel to the village in December during its annual holiday festival to see it light up with more than one million Christmas lights.1.Why is Scottsboro called“The Lost Luggage Capital of the World”？A.It sells unclaimed lost items.B.It has fancy heritage centers.C.It features amusing city parks.D.It offers top shopping attractions.2.What can visitors do in Branson，Missouri？A.Take part in festivals.B.Shop at antique shops.C.Visit theme museums.D. Watch light shows.3.Which of the following might be the most attractive to outdoor fans？A.Hope,Kansas.B.Branson,Missouri.C.Scottsboro,Alabama.D.Leavenworth,Washington.BAs the world has changed,so has education. Since 2018,Nelly Cheboi and her non-profit TechLit Africa have been bringing computer technology into schools in Kenya, helping students join the digital world, and unlock their potential. With its own software programs,curriculum（课程）and teacher training programs，this non-profit hopes to change Africa.In 2012,Cheboi received a scholarship to College in Illinois that changed her life. She grew up in poverty in rural Kenya, watching her mother struggle to support her family alone. Cheboi had no experience with computers before moving to the US to study. She hand wrote papers and then struggled to type them out on a laptop computer. Somehow she fell in love with computer science and began a career in the field.But she did not lose sight of her origins.“As an undergraduate,I invested all of my income from various campus jobs into my community back in Kenya,”she said on the TechLit Africa website.But soon she wanted to do more for it and that is how TechLit Africa began.Cheboi recalled how her background helped her understand how important technological knowledge could be for children living in poverty. She built a school with the idea of bringing computer science as part of kids' curriculum growing up. But she found that it was going to be really hard to impact as many people as possible,because it was so hard to fund raise. Then in order to reach more students,she introduced computer training to existing schools. Cheboi physically dragged over 40 recycled computers that had been donated to them by various tech companies to Kenya in suitcases.Now,since the non-profit has grown,it works with various companies that help them clean the donated computers of data and send them to Africa. TechLit Africa runs its own curriculum with its own software programs in 10 Kenyan schools,and the hope is to increase to 100 throughout Africa by next year. The students love learning about computers,and in turn are gaining skills that will help them make use of their talents into a way out of poverty.4. What has Cheboi been doing since 2018?A. Boosting her science careerB.Promoting digital education.C.Starting a scholarship program.D. Updating the computer courses.5. What inspired Cheboi to set up TechLit Africa？A. Her love for computer scienceB. Her desire to help her hometown.C. Her dream of supporting her family.D. Her childhood experience in the US.6.What do we know about Cheboi from Paragraph 3？A.She hopes to help more kids.B. She plans to build new schools.C. She seeks to develop new courses.D.She calls for donations of computers.7.Which of the following can best describe Cheboi？A.Sensitive.B.Devoted.C. Considerate.D. Cooperative.CA Purdue University invention could save millions of taxpayer dollars and significantly reduce traffic delays. The new invention,a sensor that allows concrete to“talk”,decreases construction time and how often concrete pavement（路面）needs repairs while also improving the road's sustainability and cutting its carbon footprint.Fixed directly into a concrete pour the sensor sends engineers more precise and consistent data about the concrete's strength and need for repairs than is possible with currently used tools and methods.“Traffic jams caused by repairs have wasted 4 billion hours and 3 billion gallons of gas, on a yearly basis. This is mainly due to insufficient knowledge and understanding of concrete's strength levels,”said Luna Lu,who has been leading development of the sensor since 2017.“For instance,we don't know when concrete will reach the right strength needed to accommodate traffic loads just after construction. The concrete may be put into use too early,leading to frequent repairing,”she added.With the technology Lu and her team invented,engineers can directly monitor the fresh concrete and accurately measure many of its properties at once. The sensor notifies engineers via a smartphone app exactly when the pavement is strong enough to handle heavy traffic. The stronger the pavement is before being used by vehicles, the less often it will need to be repaired. By decreasing road repairs and construction timelines, this technology could reduce carbon dioxide that vehicles would have given off while waiting in traffic to get around a construction site.Methods that the industry has used for more than a century call for testing large samples of concrete at a lab or onsite facility.Even though these tests' are well understood by the industry, differences between lab and outdoor conditions can lead to inaccurate estimates of the concrete's strength due to the different concrete compositions and temperatures of the surrounding area.8. What can be learned about the new invention？A.It decreases accidents.B.It is costly to produce.C.It reduces road repairs.D. It is difficult to operate.9. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about？A. Waste caused by road repairs.B. Characteristics of the concrete.C. Situations of road constructions.D. Necessity of inventing the sensor.10.What does the underlined word"notifies"inParagraph'3mean?A.signals.B.Awakes.C.Monitor.D.Examines.11.What is the problem with the previous tests？A. Samples must be tested on the spot.B. The results turn out to be unreliable.C.Fewer properties have been measured.D. Concrete is tested in certain temperature.DA study from the University of Montreal and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, published in Frontiers in Medicine,found that regular virtual visits to museums could help seniors stay mentally active and come with a host of additional health benefits. That's because these digital connections can make retirees feel less lonely and isolated（孤立的）.Social isolation has been associated with the risks for heart disease and the decline of recognition abilities in seniors and the pandemic（疫情）increased the risks due to the need for seniors to stay home and isolate,according to a press release from the university.The researchers investigated the potential benefits of weekly virtual visits for a three-month period. The participants were people aged 65 and older who lived in Montreal. Half of the participants took part in online visits and a discussion afterwards,while the control group did not participate in any.cultural events at all. The group who participated in the virtual visits showed improvements in their quality of life.“Our study showed that art-based activities may be an effective intervention,”lead author Dr. Olivier Beauchet,a professor at the University of Montreal,said in the press release.“On a global scale,this participatory art-based activity could become a model that could be offered in museums and arts institutions worldwide to promote active and healthy aging.”The initiative reflects approaches recommended by the World Health Organization to manage certain diseases,according to Beauchet. For instance,the WHO launched the Aging and Health Program in 2015 that included using community-based organizations to promote culture as a key component of improving health. Traditionally, these sorts of preventive health activities have taken place in schools, community centers,and workplaces.“While these are suitable locations that reach a great number of people,there are additional organizations and sectors that could become partners in public health research and practice development,”Beauchet said.“Museums are among such potential partners. They are aware of the needs of their communities and are consequently expanding the types of activities they offer.”12.How do seniors benefit from regular virtual visits to museums？A.They get survival skills.B.They raise interest in art.C.They improve quality of life.D.They connect more with family.13. What can be inferred from Beauchet's words in Paragraph 3？A.Participants come from the whole world.B.The museum needs better cultural events.C. Face-to-face discussion is a useful intervention.D. Seniors should attend more art-based activities.14. What is the purpose of the last paragraph？A.To advocate.B.To entertain.C.To advertise.D.To warn.15. Which may be a suitable title for the text？A.The Aged Form a Community to Reduce LonelinessB.Virtual Art-based Activities Bring People TogetherC.Online Museum Trips Improve Seniors' Well beingD.Retired Individuals Pay More Visits to Museums第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。

To be exact,thoughts of the future have kept me up countless nights and made me worry enough to do poorly on more than one test. Because of this, wordsof wisdom are a source of comfort.Steve Jobs gave a speech to Stanford's graduating class in 2005 and his words resound repeatedly in my mind whenever I think about my future.It started when l became a junior, when college came into view. It's the first big step to making your life your own. So when Jobs discussed his life as a student, some fears were eased. He, too, felt the need to attend college to make something of himself. He faced what many are extremely afraid of: uncertainty. His lack of understanding caused him to stop attending college and focus on what he felt was important. His story had a happy ending, of course, since he certainly turned out well.This doesn't mean that students shouldn't attend college, but rather that they shouldn't worry so much. You'll get where you need to go, even if your path is a bit morewinding(蜿蜒的)than you'd like.Jobs talked about the hardships in his work. His love of his work helped him carry on and he got where he was meant to be, which restates the point: don't panic.One particular part of his speech stayed with me. Steve Jobs quoted(引用)thc saying"Stay hungry, stay foolisll" and it has become my motto. Staying foolish is realizing thatyou are still a fool, no matter how much you've learned or experienced. There is always more to explore. Staying hungry is wanting to find those things about which you are still uneducated.Steve Jobs' level of success is possible to achieve, and I aim to prove that. With the will power to go into the world living every day like it's my last and allowing the future to take care of itself, I will do great things. In thelast moments of my life, I'll be proud of what I have done and hope to have all the wisdom a person could wish for.【1】The author felt worried when_____.A．he had to take tests at schoolB．he had lots of sleepless nightsC．he thought about his futureD．he searched for words of wisdom【2】It is suggested in Paragraphs l and 2 that_____A．the author is a college studentB．the author cares much about his futureC．Steve Jobs failed because of his decisionD．Steve Jobs' words had no effect on the author【3】What did the author gain from Jobs' speech?A．Courage to drop out of school.B．Confidence in defeating Jobs.C．Interest in computer industry.D．Bravery to face uncertainties.【4】What did NOT Steve Jobs encourage students to do in his speech?A．Be content with what they know.B．Have the desire to learn more.C．Stay calm in the face of hardshipsD．Be modest so as to learn more.【5】The passage is mainly about_____.A．an experience of a speechB．a memorable meeting with JobsC．the most impressive quotation in lifeD．the wisdom drawn from a speech2.Sarah came running in saying, "Look what l found. " Over the top of the paper I was reading I saw a long object that made me jump. It was a piece of snakeskin that had been shed （脱皮) by one of our garden snakes.'Isn't it beautiful?" said my wide-eyed 7~year-old daughter. I stared at the organic wrapper and thought to myself that it really was not that beautiful, but I did not want to disappoint Sarah. Everything children see for the first time is elementary to their sense of beauty and creativity. They see only merit (忧点) and excellence in the world. "Why does it do this?" Sarah asked. I like to teach my children that there is something else going on besides what they see in front of them. "Snakes shed their skin because they need to renew themselves," I explained. "Why do they need to renew themselves?" Sarah asked. "We often need to shed our skins, those coatings that we cover ourselves with," I said to my now absorbed daughter. "We outgrow some things and find other stuff unnecessary. This snake no longer needs this skin. It is probably too old, and the snake probably doesn't think it looks as smart in the skin as it once did. Like buying a new suit. "Of course, I'm sure this explanation won't suit naturalists. But Sarah got the point. As we talked, I knew that she began to understand that renewal is part of progress; that we need to take a good look at ourselves, and rooms and schoolwork and creativity, and she began to see what we need to keep and what need to cast off. I was careful to point out that this is a natural process, not one to be forced."Snakes don't peel off their skin when they feel like it," I explained. "lt happens as part of their growth. ""I see, Dad. " said Sarah. She then jumped off my lap, grabbed the snakeskin, and ran off.I hoped she would remember this. Often, in order to find our real selves underneath the layers of community and culture we are cloaked (掩饰) in year after year, we need to start examining these layers. We need to gently peel some away, as we recognize them to be worthless, unnecessary, or flawed (有缺陷的); or at best, remember the things we discard（丢掉）to teach us how we can improve.【1】When Sarah asked the author whether the snakeskin was beautiful,___________A．he was shocked and jumpedB．he tried to understand her point of viewC．he thought that telling the truth was a meritD．he decided to teach her something about the garden【2】How did Sarah feel about the author's explanation?A．Confused.B．Boreci C．Satisfied.D．Excited.【3】Which of the following would the author agree with?A．By reflecting on ourselves, we can better ourselves.B．It is necessary to force others to remove some things.C．The community and culture force us to change.D．It is natural to keep some old clothes.【4】From the text, we can conclude that the author___________.A．does not like nature muchB．takes the chilcl's feelings lightlyC．is both a logical and thoughtful personD．loves to see his daughter excited about animals【5】Which of the following could be the best title for the article?A．The things we should cast off B．A shed snakeskin in Sarah's eyesC．A natural part of our growth D．Renewal for snakes and us3.If you want to teach your children how to say sorry, you must be good at saying it yourself, especially to your own children. But how you say it can be quite tricky.If you say to your children "I'm sorry I got angry with you, but...", what follows that "but" can make the apology ineffective:"I had a bad day" or "your noise was giving me a headache" leaves the person who has been injured feeling that he should be apologizing for his bad behavior in expecting an apology.Another means by which peaple appear to apologize without actually doing so is to say "I'm sorry you're upset"; this suggests that you are somehow at fault for allowing yourself to get upset by what the other person has done. Then there is the general, all-covering apology, which avoids the necessity of identifying a specific act that is particularly hurtful or insulting, and which the person who is apologizing should promise never to do again. Saying "I'm useless as a parent" does not commit a person to any specific improvement.These pseudo-apologies(假道歉) are used by people who believe saying sorry shows weakness. Parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength, and therefore not take these pseudo-apologies.But even when presented with examples of real apology, childfen still need help to become aware of the complexities of saying sorry. A three-year-old might need help in un- derstanding that other children feel pain just as he does, and that hitting a playmate over the head with a heavy toy requires an apology. A six-year-old might need reminding that spoiling other children's expectations can require an apology. A 12-year-old might need to be shown that destroying the biscuit tin without asking permission is acceptable, but thatborrowing a parent's clothes without permission is not.【1】If a mother adds "but" to an apology, ________.A．the child may find the apology easier to acceptB．the child may feel that he owes her an apologyC． she promises never to do it againD．she does not realize that the child has been hurt【2】According to the author, saying "I am sorry you are upset" most probably means “_______”A．You have good reason to get upsetB．I apologize for hurting your feelingsC．I am at fault for making you upsetD．I am aware you are upset, but I am not to blame【3】It is not advisable to use the general, all-covering apology because _______.A． it is not clear and ineffectiveB． it is hurtful and insultingC． it may make the other person feel faultyD．it gets one into the habit of making empty promises .【4】We learn from the last paragraph that in teaching children to say sorry_______A．the complexities involved should be ignoredB．parents need to set them a good exampleC．their ages should be taken into accountD．parents should be patient and tolerant【5】It can be inferred from the passage that apologizing properly is________.A．a sign of social,progressB．not as simple as it seemsC．not necessary among family members.D．a social issue calling for immediate attention4.Look closely at ,your hands-are they clean? It doesn't matter how many times you was your hands. They're still crowded with microbes, which are also called "germs" or "bacteria". Microbes are everywhere. But don't worry-most microbes don't harm you. and many actually help you stay alive.Now, scientists say the microbes that live on our hands could be used in a surprising way: fighting crime. When police visit the scene of a crime, they often look for fingerprints to try to identifythe criminal. But according to a recent study, investigators could even use microbes to help break a criminal case.Every person has his or her own set of microbes that live on their hands, according to scientists at,the University of:Colorado. That means the mix of different kinds of microbes on everybody's hand is unique-much like one's fingerprint.The scientists wanted to know whether this microbe mix could be used as a new kind of fingerprint-especially in a crime scene where fingerprints might be hard to find. And policemen use forensics such as studying fingerprints to identify the criminal."Microbe fingerprints are harder to hide," said Noah Fierer, one of the scientists."You can't sterilize(为……杀菌) a surface just by wiping it off. "His team compared the bacteria on the hands of 273 people with the bacteria found on each person's computer keyboard. For the study, the keyboards had been used only by the people who were being tested. The study showed that the mix of microbes from each per- son's hands matched the mix of microbes on that person's keyboard. The scientists were easily able to tell the 273 people apart-just by looking at their keyboards.But there are a lot more than 273 criminals. Other scientists wonder whetherthe microbe fingerprint can really be that useful.Fierer agrees that scientists have a lot more work to do before the microbe fingerprint will be a useful tool．【1】According to the passage, microbes on people's hands_____A．do more harm than good B．are easy to get rid ofC．are almost the same D．might help find crimes【2】The underlined word "forensics" in Paragraph 5 probably refers to________.A．the scientific test used by policeB．a new kind of fingerprintC．a kind of bacteria'in people's handsD．a kind of newly invented keyboard【3】What did Fierer's team find through the study?A．They found the criminal among the 237 people.B．They could tell who had used which computer.C．Computer keyboards couldn't keep people's microbe fingerprints.D．People's characters could be identified by the keyboards they used.【4】We can learn from the passage that ______.A．your microbes may give you awayB．scientists will come to a clear conclusion soonC．many scientists think microbe fingerprints uselessD．the microbe fingerprint has been used in many cases【5】The main idea of the passage is about_____.A．the importance of fingerprints B．how to clean our handsC．the usefulness of microbes D．different germs on our hands四、其他阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上（请注意各小题后面的词数要求）。

The researchfound methane missions from gas stoves across the United States are roughly equal to the carbon dioxide released by half a million gas-powered cars in a year.To estimate the impact of these emissions, researchers measured three key gases from stoves in 53 homes across seven California counties. The team chose two gases — methane and carbon dioxide — because of their contribution to climate change, and selected nitrogen oxides because of their known risk to human health. The scientists set up plastic dividing walls between the kitchens and other rooms and used instruments that measure wavelengths of light to determine the concentration of certain gases.The team estimated that stoves release between 0.8 and 1.3 percent of the natural gasquarters of the methane emissions happened when both old and new gas stoves were turned off. “Over a 20-year time scale, the global warming potential of methane leaks is 86 times greater than carbon dioxide,” Stanford reports.The most significant health risks happen when the stove is lit, the authors note, because the process creates nitrogen dioxide as a byproduct. Increasing airflow by using a range hood can help reduce the personal health risk of natural gas-burning appliances, but most individuals report rarely using their ventilation system.In a small kitchen, it only took a few minutes of unventilated stove use to generate emissions levels above national health standards. According to a meta-analysis from 2013, children living in homes with gas stoves were 42 percent more likely to experience symptoms associated with asthma, and 24 percent more likely to be diagnosed with lifetime asthma.In addition to health risks, natural gas burning stoves also endanger the planet by releasing methane. The results of the study have furled efforts by scientists and activists to encourage Americans to switch to all-electric stoves and appliances.12、Which gas leaking from stoves warms the earth most?A.Methane.B.Carbon dioxide.C.Nitrogen oxide.D.Nitrogen dioxide.13、What does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 4 refer to?A.The measuring instruments.B.The American families.C.The team members.D.The gas stoves.14、When does a gas stove present the greatest health risks?A.When it is old.B.When it is new.C.When it is turned on.D.When it is turned off.15、What would the researchers urge people to do?A.Equip kitchens.B.Switch to clean fuels.e sustainable energy.D.Purchase electric stoves.二、七选五16、When you're meeting someone for the first time, you're eager to make a good impression. ①________★ Shake hands firmlyWeak handshakes can make you seem shy and anything but confident.

But the concept itself isn’t new at all — in fact, scientists have been exploring questions about climate change for almost 200 years.The idea of ''greenhouse gases'' goes back to 1824, when Joseph Fourier wondered what was regulating the earth's temperature. Fourier concluded that the atmosphere must be responsible for containing the heat absorbed from the sun and described it as a box with a glass lid: As light shines through the glass, the inside gets warmer as the lid traps the heat. As Fourier's ideas spread, it came to be called ''the greenhouse effect''.Scientists continued to study the greenhouse effect. Not until a Swedish chemist named Svante Arrhenius came along, did scientists understand how global warming actually works. After years of work, Arrhenius determined that the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere did in fact have a direct effect on global temperatures.Arrhenius found that CO2, and other gases trap radiation, which warms the atmosphere. Arrhenius was the first to suspect that burning coal could contribute to the greenhouse effect. But Arrhenius welcomed the warming effect on the planet. At a lecture later that year, Arrhenius noted that creatures of a warmer earth ''might live under a milder sky and in less barren surroundings''.While Arrhenius' findings won him the 1903 Nobel Prize in chemistry, scientists kept debating whether the greenhouse effect was increasing until 1950, when researchers finally began to find strong data supporting it. By the end of the 1950s, American scientists had been sounding the alarm on the long-term consequences of climate change. Climate change research has come a long way since Fourier first described the greenhouse effect — still, maybe Arrhenius should have been more careful of what he wished for.4．What does the underlined word ''it'' in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．The climate change. B．The greenhouse effect.C．The atmosphere. D．The heat from the sun.5．When did the scientists first find evidence for the bad effect of global warming?A．In 1824. B．In 1903.C．In 1950. D．200 years ago.6．What's the author's attitude towards Arrhenius' wish?A．Optimistic. B．Negative.C．Neutral. D．Ambiguous.7．What's the main idea of the text?A．Causes of climate change. B．Effects of greenhouse gases. C．Findings about global warming. D．Explorations on climate change.It's common knowledge that the woman in Leonardo da Vinci's most famous painting seems to look back at observers, following them with her eyes no matter where they stand in the room. But this common knowledge turns out wrong.A new study finds that the woman in the painting is actually looking out at an angle that's15.4 degrees off to the observer's right—well outside of the range that people normally believe when they think someone is looking right at them. In other words, said the study author, Horstmann, ''She's not looking at you. '' This is somewhat ironic, because the entire phenomenon of a person's gaze (凝视) in a photograph or painting seeming to follow the viewer is called the ''Mona Lisa effect''. That effect is absolutely real, Horstmann said. If a person is illustrated or photographed looking straight ahead, even people viewing the portrait from an angle will feel they are being looked at. As long as the angle of the person’s gaze is no more than about 5 degrees off to either side, the Mona Lisa effect occurs.Horstmann and his co-author were studying this effect for its application in the creation of artificial-intelligence avatars(虚拟头像) when Horstmann took a long look at the ''Mona Lisa'' and realized she wasn't looking at him. To make sure it wasn't just him, the researchers asked 24 people to view images of the ''Mona Lisa'' on a computer screen.So why do people repeat the belief that her eyes seem to follow the viewer? Horstmann isn't sure. It's possible, he said, that people have the desire to be looked at, so they think thewoman is looking straight at them. Or maybe the people who first coined the term ''Mona Lisa effect'' just thought it was a cool name.8．What is generally believed about the woman in the painting ''Mona Lisa''?A．She attracts the viewers to look back.B．She seems mysterious because of her eyes.C．She fixes her eyes on the back of the viewers.D．She looks at the viewers wherever they stand.9．What gaze range in a painting will cause the Mona Lisa effect?A．B．C．D．10．Why was the experiment involving 24 people conducted?A．To confirm Horstmann's belief.B．To create artificial-intelligence avatars.C．To calculate the angle of Mona Lisa's gaze.D．To explain how the Mona Lisa effect can be applied.11．What can we learn from the text?A．Horstmann thinks it's cool to coin the term “Mona Lisa effect”.B．The Mona Lisa effect contributes to the creation of artificial intelligence.C．Feeling being gazed at by Mona Lisa may be caused by the desire for attention.D．The position of the ruler in the experiment will influence the viewers' judgment.Sparrow is a fast-food chain with 200 restaurants. Some years ago, the group to which Sparrow belonged was taken over by another company. Although Sparrow showed no sign of declining, the chain was generally in an unhealthy state. With more and more fast-food concepts reaching the market, the Sparrow menu had to struggle for attention. And to make matters worse, its new owner had no plans to give it the funds it required.Sparrow failed to grow for another two years. Until a new CEO, Carl Pearson, decided to build up its market share. He did a survey, which showed that consumers who already used Sparrow restaurants were extremely positive about the chain, while customers of otherfast-food chains were unwilling to turn away from them. Sparrow had to develop a new promotional campaign.Pearson faced a battle over the future of the Sparrow brand. The chain’s owner now favored rebranding Sparrow as Marcy’s restaurants. Pearson resisted, arguing for an advertising campaign designed to convince customers that visits to Sparrow restaurants were fun. Such an attempt to establish a positive relationship between a company and the general public was unusual for that time. Pearson strongly believed that numbers were the key to success, rather than customers’ spending power. Finally, the owner accepted his idea.The campaign itself changed the traditional advertising style of the fast-food industry. The TV ads of Sparrow focused on entertainment and featured original songs performed by a variety of stars. Instead of showing the superiority of a specific product, the intention was to put Sparrow in the hearts of potential customers.Pearson also made other decisions which he believed would contribute to the new Sparrow image. For example, he offered to lower the rent of any restaurants which achieved a certain increase in their turnover (营业额)These efforts paid off, and Sparrow soon became one of the most successful fast-food chains in the regions where it operated.12．Which was one of the problems Sparrow faced before Pearson became CEO?A．The number of its customers was declining.B．Its customers found the food unhealthy.C．It was in need of financial support.D．Most of its restaurants were closed.13．For what purpose did Pearson start the advertising campaign?A．To build a good relationship with the public.B．To stress the unusual tradition of Sparrow.C．To learn about customers’ spending power.D．To meet the challenge from Marcy’s restaurants.14．What do know about the TV ads of Sparrow?A．They changed people’s views on pop stars.B．They amused the public with original songs.C．They focused on the superiority of its products.D．They influenced the eating habits of the audience.15．What was Pearson’s achievement as a CE O?A．He managed to pay off Sparrow’s debts.B．He made Sparrow much more competitive.C．He helped Sparrow take over a company.D．He improved the welfare of Sparrow employees.二、七选五Travelling with friends can be an absolutely amazing experience where you could make lifelong memories or it could end up ruining your friendship. 16．Here are some rules you should follow to make sure your next trip with friends goes as smoothly as possible.17．Sure，you and your friends probably have some similar interests，but that’s not always the case. In an effort to keep everyone happy，go over travel plans and expectations ahead of time. Have each person categorize activities or sights into“must—see”“want tosee”and“would go if we have time”. Plan accordingly and make sure everyone can see some of their top attractions.·Communicate and respect each other. Everyone has personal preferences when travelling—from getting the bed closest to the bathroom o r sitting in the airplane’s window seat. But sometimes things don’t go as you like. In this case，share your requirements directly with your travel companions. 18．Have a conversation when problems arise，for communication is the key.·Don’t disappear. When travelling with a group—or even just one other person—you may want some alone time. That’s completely fine，but make sure your friends know where you are and have a way of contacting you. 19．·Get off your phone. Of course，your friends will understand if you need to take a call from a family member，or in the event of a work emergency，but other than that，try to stay off your phone. 20．After all，the appeal of this type of trip is to spend time with friends. Just enjoy it! A．Give each other some space.B．Include at least one activity for everyone.C．And remember that consideration and respect go a long way.D．At the same time，listen to their concerns and be respectful of them.E.Don’t respond to non-urgent work contact or send messages frequently.F.It’s especi ally true of travelling in foreign countries or unfamiliar places.G.So it's important to make sure you and your friend(s)are on the same page.三、完形填空Have you ever noticed how the way you feel about yourself sometimes depends on whether or not you get confirmation of your value from others?I have 21 a lot about nurturing a positive identity of love and appreciation from the man who taught me to train dogs.First, he started out by 22 his dogs with love and respect, and by showing them an infinite amount of 23 as they were learning.Then, the 24 thing he did was a true stroke of genius.

B My school appeared on the news last week because we had made an important change in our local area. Our class had planted a large garden in what was once only a vacant lot. It was a lot of work but it was all worth it. I got blisters (水泡) from digging, and we all got insect bites, too. I learned a lot about gardening and collaboration (合作), and then I learned about the media. Our teacher telephoned the TV station and informed them of what we had accomplished. She spoke with the producer. The producer checked with the directors, but they said there were plenty of stories similar to ours. They wanted to know what was special about our particular garden, since many schools plant them. The teacher explained that, after going on the Internet to learn about the prairie (大草原), we had made a prairie garden. We had gone to a prairie and gotten seeds from the plants, and then we planted them. We did not water the garden, but we did weed it. We decided to let nature water it with rain, since that was how prairies grew in the past. We sent a picture of the garden to the news station. In the picture, the grass was so high that it stood taller than the fourth grade students. As a result, the producer sent a reporter to our school. He interviewed the headmaster and asked him many questions about the garden. After that, they interviewed us, and we explained to them what we had learned through this project. That night, we watched the news, and there we were. The news reporter told our story. It was only two minutes long, but it was us. We were famous. All that work, all those blisters, it was worth it. We knew that when we saw the garden every day, but now we knew that the whole city thought so, too.

Later this summer, the 400th anniversary of the death of the Renaissance (文艺复兴) painter EI Greco will be marked with an exciting exhibition at the Museo del Prado at Paseo del Prado from 24 June to 5 October. How to go?
A new exhibition on the living and working spaces of Spain's greatest artist, Picasso, has just opened in the studio at the Fundación Mapfre at Paseo de Recoletos 23. It runs until 11 May with rarely seen pieces borrowed from his family.
Barajas airport is 13km north-east of the city centre and is served by frequent trains on Metro line 8, but the shortest underground journey is a bit complex with at least one change at Nuevos Miniterios station and takes about 30 minutes. The fare to any station in the city entre is €4.50. The airport express bus runs every 15 to 35 minutes around the clock; €5 one way. It takes 40 minutes to reach the city centre. A taxi takes half the time. A flat rate of €30 covers most of central Madrid. 1. When will the exhibition about Picasso close?
A. On 23 March.
B. On 11 May.
C. On 24 June.
D. On 5 October.
2. Which airline operates flights from Manchester to Madrid?
